Appearance
Physical appearance
The fisherman is a tall man with tan skin. He has light brown hair and yellowish black eyes.
Civilian attire
The fisherman wears a light gold fishing hat, a plain white shirt, and green pants. He also wears a light gold vest with four pockets on the chest, dark green pants that are tucked below his brown boots which go below his knees.
As Silurus
He has luminous vivid chartreuse green skin, and his eyes are brilliant yellow. His suit is brilliant opal around the torso with three luminous vivid chartreuse green spots and strong blue in the forearms and legs from his waist to his feet. The suit covers the top half of his face with a strong blue mask, and two catfish-like whiskers protrude from his cheekbones. At the top of his head, the suit has a luminous vivid chartreuse green crest, and it has a fin on the back as well.
Personality
As a civilian
The fisherman is fine overall, but he can lose his patience when dealing with disappointing situations, upset about being unable to catch any fish and getting splashed because of a beach ball.
As Silurus
As Silurus, he is vengeful, proud, and furious. He strongly believes that the Seine is only meant for fishing, not for other leisure activities like swimming. Angry about the civilians ruining his fishing by scaring off the fish, he lashes back at them with catfish and his fishing rod, even willing to drown his foes. Silurus also has little patience for those ruining his schemes, getting enraged at Cat Noir for trying to get rid of his catfish.
Abilities
As a civilian
The fisherman is skilled at fishing.
As Silurus
Silurus can control the water and catfish. He holds himself high above the river and travels around with a waterspout. With voice commands and gestures, he controls the catfish to go out in any direction and/or attack anyone he desires. Also, Silurus is able to create catfishes comprised out of water for crashing into opponents. However, a strong enough blow, like from Ladybug's yo-yo or Cat Noir's Cataclysm, can destroy his waterspout or water-formed catfishes, His fishing rod is his tool for hitting targets, like humans and objects, or hooking them to pull them towards him or yank them into the water. The rod is able to hook onto his water-formed catfishes as well.
